Thanks for the responses guys

todays update

The contractor is doing the work at the house poorly but hes still doing it we don't really care at this point as long as its done

The painter came wearing a dress shirt and tie demanding a cheque so he could go deposit it before starting the work so my brother told him we will give him a post dated cheque then and date it for toms date and to give me(my brother) the invoice and he said no but gave him the invoice my brother took a picture of it and sent it to me at this point he starts yelling at my brother saying he wants his money and the invoice back since its his property he took the invoice and continued yelling at him so my brother told him to get out of our house and if you comeback we will be calling the police and he left.

I went to the lien office in new west and got a copy of the lien at the bottom of the paper there is a note saying

"section 45 of the builders lien Act provides as follows:
45 (1) A person who knowingly files or causes an agent to file a claim of lien containing a false statement commits an offence.
(2) A person who commits an offence under subsection (1) is liable to a fine not exceeding the greater of $2,000 and the amount by which the stated claim exceeds the actual claim"

the lien is for $4800.00

His invoice that i have a picture of is for
Total Cost of Paint and Labour: $3,000.00
HST: 360.00
Total amount due: $3,360.00

Edit: His company Name is Herbie's Painting and his name is Herbie Pahal
